Celebrating with the nephews

Mike's sister has two adorable sons. We don't get the chance to hang out with them very often, so when we do, of course, we bring our cameras. We had a blast playing with these two cuties over the holiday. They're very happy brothers and it's a joy to watch them learn and grow.


















Merry Christmas!

Mike and I had a great time celebrating the holiday with my family this year. Hope everyone out there had a great holiday, as well. Here's to a happy new year!

'Tis the Season

My sister, Becky, wanted some fun holiday shots of her and her puppy, Haley, for her Christmas cards this year. We definitely had a good time taking these and learned quickly that Haley has an affinity for wearing hats!






And...Haley the creepy elf!

PPK Designs

PPK Designs is an up-and-coming stationery business based here in Chicago. I recently had the pleasure of shooting some of the designer's custom cards and invitations for the blog she is starting. I will make no effort to hide my bias...I think the invitations are fresh, sophisticated and really, really fun. I love working with PPK Designs, as evidenced by my logo, watermark and, coming soon, business cards! Glad to be of help with the photos and already looking forward to shooting more soon.

Jeff and Susan are having a baby

Maybe it was the crisp November day. Or the dramatic tall grass and late afternoon golden glow. I'm pretty sure, though, it was getting to share in the excitement of two friends who have never been happier. Whatever the reason, Mike and I had a great time this past weekend hanging out with Jeff and Susan at the Half-Day Forest Preserve in Vernon Hills. A beautiful place for a beautiful time in their life together. Guys, we couldn't be happier for you and can't wait to meet the littlest Langner in March!
